Consumer Description

MY KEY CAN BE PULLED FROM THE IGNITION WITHOUT FIRST PUTTING THE SHIFTER IN PARK. IF THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ISN'T APPLIED THE CAR CAN ROLL BUT CANNOT BE STEERED. IT IS DANGEROUS. ACURA AND HONDA HAVE A NUMBER OF RECALLS FOR THIS ISSUE, INCLUDING SOME 2000 TL VINS BUT APPARENTLY DOESN'T INCLUDE MY VIN UNDER THE RECALL. THE DESCRIPTION OF THE RECALL EXACTLY MATCHES MY SYMPTOMS AND IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR. ONSET DATE AND MILEAGE ARE APPROXIMATE. I'VE BEEN LIVING WITH THIS PROBLEM FOR YEARS HOPING THAT ACURA WOULD EVENTUALLY RECOGNIZE THAT THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS AND PAY FOR THE REPAIR. *TR
